If anyone knows of an equivalent mnemonic which doesn't use that horrible American word "gas" for something which isn't a gas, please let me know - FUMP doesn't have the same ring to it!)
How about PUMP:-
P=Petrol...well its almost the same
I always chant "Final's clear check the gear" on turning base to final....probably sound like a complete prat to my passengers, but its less embarrasing than landing gear up
